	Do You Want To Quit Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

well quit then, just do not expect that the rest of us are giving up because you feel that way.

yes we are in trouble

yes we are behind

yes we could be smashed into the darkness

yet ...

we were behind several thousand years ago

we have fought hard to get where we are

we be Vikings



also if you want to shut this game down, how about participating in the Senate Sessions, and the threads...

then maybe wanting to close this game down would mean more

I'm willing to go on to the end as long as it does not drag the game into a quagmire of slowness and inactivity do to the fact we are going to lose if that be the case. If we are going to lose lets do it right.

Let's not quit. Let's do whatever we can to survive the longest.
Or perhaps if one of the civs was particlarly bad betraying us, then maybe just have the goal of outsuriving that civ.

However, we have some things favoring us (at least, favoring a prolonged survival):
The AI has trouble staging a really big seaborne invasion, and our role will be to fend off the attackers, on our territory, as they don't benefit from defense bonuses.

We have berzerkers, which have the best pre-tank attack power (on par with napoleonic cavalry and WW1 infantry). And we'll have cannons soon to help prune the invaders' units.

The situation isn't easy. But we have a chance to fend off the attackers, if we are determined and careful.

Well said Spiffor, yes well said Mr Justice

Spiffor is mostly right, the AI in both Classic Civ III and PTW limits itself to sending only 1 Transport type unit with a naval unit permeantely assigned directly escorting it. (Sometimes building other naval units for superiory as well.)

And I haven't heard of the AI rushing an airport upon getting a foothold on the other contientant which would be standard human behavior.

The problem is that a mixture of 8 Tanks & Mech Inf are strong enough to take over several cities. (Won't be much longer until we start seeing Modern Armor)

But, yes I belive we still have a resonable shot at surviving the game if we make peace with the modern era oppoents as soon as it will let us.

Perhaps we should also consider after we have peace with both of the modern era oppoents signing an MPP with both. (I think that we can sign MPP with a player with Nationalism even if we don't have it ourselves.)

	Suffering from ads?

We can survive to the end of the game. Of that, I have no doubt. We are on several islands, and the AI will not be able to attack all of them. I mearly see it as a question of how the AI will win, and when. Probably a space ship - and probably within the next 80 turns. I don't think it will go to the turn time limit, as the AI has too much of a production bonus to just sit there and not build the space ship parts.
